Green & Co.'S report on cotton futures says:
| Tie market has be II active and excited. but
notwithstanding several weak spots and evident
local efforts TO assist the decn ming tendency, the
| market again asserted a firm undertone and has
| averaged higher throughout, closing very well
| sustained at 4IG5 points abo e last evening and
| 56t6 points under the highest of the day. lrreg-
| ul4r Information reg riding the run of port re-
| ceipts caused much of the fiuct' alton, but ru-
| morS OF coming small crop estimates and a final
dispatch from Liverpool reporting excited
| market carried stimulating influences. The
| trading has been of mixed character, including
considerable run of orders to realize, as well as
! call for investment, and this has been added
| to the disturbing element, but on the whole the
! advantage is conceded t. the bulls"
